NATIONAL BREASTFEEDING COUNSELLORS

  • Breastfeeding counsellors are mothers who have breastfed themselves.
  • They have trained with one of the voluntary organisations and can give help and support by phone (or occasionally at home).
  • They are keen to offer support to other breastfeeding mothers, but please remember they do so as volunteers.
